Obama's Call to Service

This editorial is one I really like. One of the things I really like about Obama policy is talking about service programs. The country can get no better "bang for our buck" than putting the unemployed to work, creating training for them, and helping out others at the same time.

2 big projects that Obama has been rumored to support are AmeriCorps and Teach for America both of which are do gooder projects that the article rightly states helps employ the hardest hit by unemployment and helps service a group of largly needy people. The article has a good 6 point breakdown of why this is a good idea that I won't repeat here but thoguht one might want to read further.
